Cambridge's hottest new festival is set to return for it's sophomore year, with Therapy?'s Andy Cairns and Wildhearts' main man Ginger set to headline the event. Taking place on Saturday 15th September, Subterranean is a 12-hour music marathon, in the the confines of Cambridge's Corn Exchange.

The rock and indie festival which was launched in 2017, saw Scottish songstresses The Amorettes, rising stars Stone Broken, and up and comers PINS headline the inaugural event. A huge success, hundreds poured through the venue doors for the event.

Buoyed by it's success, Subterranean returns this September. Cambridge Live Operations Director and Festival co-curator, Neil Jones says: "After the success of the inaugural Subterranean last year, Cambridge Live is really pleased to once again be providing a platform for some of the amazing talent from the rock and indie scene in the region. The music scene is currently in rude health in Cambridge and we look forward to seeing some of the cream of the crop join our headline touring acts for what promises to once again be a fantastic day of music".

Repeating the same format, the Corn Exchange will be transformed into a four-stage music mecca, bursting with richly creative local talent alongside touring headliners. Three stages will be placed inside the auditorium - the Underworld, Labyrinth and Inferno stages - and as one band finishes on one stage so another starts on the next, giving people the chance to enjoy them all. Outside of the main space there’s also a chance to experience the pared back beauty of The Lair, an exclusively acoustic stage.​The line-up features a number of bands from Cambridge and the surrounding areas, each bringing their own distinctive style and energy to the Festival. Playing alongside these local musicians will be some of the brightest names from the indie and rock scene.
